Re: date pref

1999


It keeps the original formatting.
numero = 24027
interpreted = N
texte = >>>I think you should change the Read date format, too. > >i also did that Ken. Quit W* and diit with BBEdit.Still no joy. Well, I cannot say that I'm surprised, webcat seems to always have some kind of problem with dates ...A long time ago I changed over to storing my dates as the number of days since 0000. Now when I make date comparisons, I'm comparing numbers, not formatted date values, so the comparisons are far faster than ever before -- and they always work as expected. Formatting dates on the page is done on the fly wherever needed.Sincerely, Kenneth Grome WebDNA Consultant Associated Messages, from the most recent to the oldest:
